The traditional Dutch windmills that drained the polders, ground the grain, sawed the timber, and pumped the seawater out of the Netherlands for four hundred years take twelve pages in Windmills of Holland 2027 Wall Calendar. At the height of the era in the late 1700s there were close to 10,000 working windmills across the Low Countries, and today around a thousand survive, many still operating on summer weekends thanks to the volunteer guild Het Gilde van Vrijwillige Molenaars. The featured mills lean into the most photographed: the nineteen polder mills at Kinderdijk (a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1997), the Zaanse Schans collection north of Amsterdam, the De Gooyer mill in central Amsterdam, and the iconic flour and oil mills along the Vecht. The photography catches them at sunrise, with sails turning, and reflected in the canal water below. This title comes from Red Robin Publishing.
